My first thought was 2-party state violations, 24/7? However, any legally-minded people want to explain how they threaded the needle on this?

I have real respect for Apple's "Private Cloud Compute" architecture [0], I am not a hater, just trying to understand.

Are these the dividends Apple is getting from doing this truly impressive work?

It really depends on what you consider a recording. If audio is streamed though a transcription engine and never saved in a way that could be replayed, it's hard to argue that a recording has been made. The live audio was transcribed.

This is exactly what I was thinking too. How can this be legal in 2-party states?

The 2 party state thing is for phone calls. Outside of phone calls, you are generally allowed to record anything you can legally hear, same as you can photograph anything you can legally see.
